Also, the newer versions of vegas (up to 9.0 currently) are for all intents and purposes the same as 7.0, I wouldn't bother upgrading.

Just for clarification, Vegas Pro only goes up to version 8. Vegas Movie Studio (the lesser version) goes to 9.Vivaldi wrote:Also, the newer versions of vegas (up to 9.0 currently) are for all intents and purposes the same as 7.0, I wouldn't bother upgrading.
Regardless, Vivaldi's point still stands. The differences between Pro 7 and Pro 8 are negligible, especially when concerned with AMVs.
... yea ...

A new computer with Windows Vista™ comes with an updated version of Windows Movie Maker.
Heck, a new $500 computer can get you a 2GHz+ dual core processor, up to 4GB of RAM, a 500GB or larger HDD, and Vista Home Premium. You could also get discrete Nvidia or ATI graphics.
At the very least, I'd also suggest a RAM upgrade (to at least 2GB) plus a bigger HDD (1TB is my sweet spot), add AE and keep Vegas 7.

Re: Going On Program Shopping Spree Tomorrow (What to Buy?)
yea, I definitely think you should upgrade to a new computer and think that it's fits perfectly with in your budget. I recommend AE and photoshop. You can get these in a suite with premiere also. Like other people said they're isnt a big difference in the new vegas versions and it seems like nothing else will run on your computer properly without an upgrade.

Windows 7 was just a Beta version and I liked it; soo much smaller than XP3 or Vista.
While your out looking at things, don't forget to check-out the new 1.5 Terra-Byte
USB hard drives .. for actual video editing room.
Truth is, that no matter what system you get -- Hard Drive space is always the most expensive.
